When supercrime casts its dark shadow over two troubled towns, the Master Avenger swings into action to root out evil. First, disguised as both Lamont Cranston and Kent Allard, The Shadow seeks to uncover the strange secret of "The Sealed Box" that makes it more valuable than life itself, in the classic novel that was adapted as the first Shadow comic strip adventure.

Then, the Dark Avenger battles the vile corruption that lurks beneath the surface of the "Racket Town."

BONUS: Commissioner James Gordon becomes "Bullet Bait" in the first Whisperer short story from the back pages of The Shadow Magazine! This groundbreaking pulp reprint showcases both original color pulp covers by George Rozen and the classic interior illustrations by Edd Cartier, with historical articles by Will Murray and Anthony Tollin.
